This is one of the very few times I've bothered to go look at a thread with a clickbait title.
My response to the yes or no question is ...

Whaaaaaaat???

Yes, I've heard about Joe Exotic, not deeply but have heard about him.

a pardon will only help that piece of work while he is on earth. when he meets his maker, he'll have some 'splainin' to do.

On one hand...what has Joe Exotic ever done for Trump?

On the other hand Joe Exotic is obviously a kindred spirit to Trump, and further, he would make a good advisor to Trump since he has much of the same valuable expertise in statecraft that Trump's other favorite adviser has: The Pillow Guy.

So...could be!

What is a Joe Exotic? Not heard of the term. Is it a man or a woman or a thing?

He’s the Tiger King. Gay man who ran for president once. Had a tiger zoo in Oklahoma before he went to jail for a murder for hire plot against his rival Carole f****n’ Baskin.

Yes. On top of that he was the subject of a TV series on Netflix, or something.

I bet there's Trumpsters out there weaving conspiracy theories that if Trump pardons Joe Exotic then Biden will pardon Carol Baskin

I don't think a president has the authority to pardon a state conviction.

A President has no power to pardon a state conviction: correct.

Maybe Joe can ask trump why not someday once they’re both neighbours in the federal prison system together.
